Getting To Know Dina Shubin

By Jocelyn Davidson


When it comes to painting, a painter is required to be creative and innovative with his works so that he can be differentiated from the other painters that are out there. There is one painter who has achieved differentiation from the other painters and her name is none other than Miss Dina Shubin. So if one would want to know a little bit more about her, then here is a short biography about her life and a little bit about her works.

Originally, she was from Moscow, Russia before she moved to Canada sometime in 1999. She graduated from the Moscow Teachers Training Institute under the Faculty of Arts in 1990. She began her work as a painter here and then moved to Canada in order to further elevate her career.

Her work was first featured in art expos in places such as Tokyo, Seoul, and even in New York. Eventually, her work was able to be showcased in other places around the world such as Tel Aviv, Florida, and also in her hometown in Moscow. Her work then went as far as other European countries such as Norway, Germany, Israel, Canada and then eventually reached some private art galleries in the United States of America.

What made her work very interesting was how she depicted the female character because this was pretty much what she painted all the time. She drew women in such a way that her women showcased a rather divine characterization that was both beautiful and powerful. This is something that has not been done by any other artist before.

She did this by combining the realism of portrait painting and the surrealism of abstract painting. She painted the skin of the women with real skin color and the background in the style of abstract art. This unlikely combination attracted a lot of fans who appreciated all of her very unique works.

Now what really made the women in her paintings unique were the poses that they assumed. The way they posed was something different and was like they were trying to express something to the viewers. Also, their faces were different as they had very beautiful faces that were almost Goddess like.

As stated above, she tried to create females that had very goddess like features. What she did here is that she took some real live women and she painted them in such a way that they actually looked like celestial beings. It was because of this depiction that these ladies looked both beautiful and powerful.

So basically, these are some of the things that one would want to take note of if he would do some research on Miss Shubin. Her works are extraordinary and very pleasing to the eyes because of her unique use of colors and her very unique style of painting the human figure. She is definitely an artist that is able to stand out from the rest because her style is very rare these days and one can tell that it is her.
